  • Galveston Levee Construction Project
    SLS was contracted to raise the levee height of an existing dredge spoil containment area in order for the Owner to maximize the useful life of their containment area. This project allowed the Owner/operator of the facility to save a substantial amount of money by not requiring that they pay to dispose of their spoils in an off-site disposal area. While the soil conditions were very challenging and difficult to manipulate, SLS used its experience to transform the levee system in to a useful asset for the terminal. Following the improvements, the Owner was able to achieve 40’ of draft in their ship slip.
